Brown Trout Fishing, Fishing Trips Scotland, Flyfishing in Scotland

Willie Cameron is an important figure in everything to do with Loch Fishing around Dalavich. He is the LAIA warden for the north side of Loch Awe and also for Loch Avich and his love of the sport is infectious.

Willie was brought up in rural Perthshire where his forebears had a great love of fishing which has been handed down through the generations. offthemainroad offer a range ofFishing Trips Scotland, Brown Trout Fishing, Flyfishing in Scotland which take place on some of the finest salmon fishing rivers in Scotland .

Willie’s other great love is music. At the age of 18 he learned to play the guitar, having previously been introduced to the accordion at the tender age of 12. His musical talent led him to playing in various bands including the Grampian Television Band in Aberdeen and the Jim Muir Band in Dunblane and eventually on the Canberra of the P&O cruise line.

Ill health forced Willie to retire from his building business several years ago, but after a successful heart operation he has become more involved in voluntary work. As well as promoting Fly Fishing in Scotland, Salmon Fly Fishing Scotland, Loch Fishing Scotland and music in the area, his involvement with the World Burns Federation has taken him as far afield as Moscow and recently at the Old School he set up a musical evening for a group of Italians who wanted to see how a â€real†Scotsman addresses the haggis.

Switch off, unwind, leave the city lights behind - and head to Dalavich, near Oban, west Scotland.

The Old School is a new self-catering development - and it's also the perfect place for you to retreat, relax and recharge. This exciting refurbishment of the old village school provides four bright and spacious self-contained apartments, each with one, two or three bedrooms.

Set in the heart of nature, surrounded by stunning scenery and amazing wildlife, the village of Dalavich is certainly "off the main road". On the shores of Loch Awe along a 14-mile single-track road, it's just a couple of hours' drive from Glasgow, but it's a different world.

Yet there’s plenty to do to help you recharge your batteries. You’ll find numerous lochside and forest walks, including the Dalavich Oakwood Trail, and a number of attractive cycle routes. Bikes and boats are available for hire in the village. Keep your eyes peeled for wildlife and you might even spot an otter, a wildcat or an eagle en route. And if you’re more interested on the wildlife on the end of your fishing line, some of the largest brown trout in Europe are waiting to be caught in Loch Awe. You're sure to catch trout in Loch Avich - just 10 minutes' drive away - and fishing permits are available locally. First-time visitors should take advantage of a free fly-fishing taster available exclusively to our guests in the fishing season!

You can also use Dalavich as a base to explore the spectacular scenery nearby †head north to Glen Coe, south to Crinan, or west to Oban and the isles.
